The Companions

Chapter 470: Weird skull array

Views:

I was still thinking about the words of Mo Shi, thinking that this lost bamboo forest might really be the place used by the ancients to raise centipedes. Such a forest, with many bamboo leaves, many insects, and relatively humid, is indeed suitable for breeding centipedes.

Huaxue's words suddenly interrupted my thinking.

"Has Senior Yuyinzi disappeared?" I hurriedly asked, and I will check it out. Except for me, Chen Ye and Huaxue, as well as Don't forget, Senior Yuyinzi is indeed gone.

Chen Ye yelled anxiously and shouted, "Senior, Yuyinzi, where are you... Have you heard my voice?"

I ran here from there, but only a dozen meters away. According to reason, Yuyinzi will not get lost and should come with us.

Chen Ye shouted loudly, but Yuyinzi did not answer.

I was soaked with sweat and said, "What happened when I arrived... Why did Senior Yuyinzi disappear? She can't suddenly disappear. It's impossible for ordinary people to snatch her away!"

Huaxue thought for a while, and said, "Maybe when we rushed here, Yuyinzi saw something on the way, rushing to chase after him, and didn't have time to tell us... So he separated from us."

Chen Ye yelled several times, and his whole body was restless. While Yuyinzi stayed, Chen Ye was anxious. I was afraid he would rush back to find Yuyinzi, grabbed him, and comforted him: "Okay, it's okay... Yuyinzi's skills are so strong that no one will hurt her."

Chen Ye sighed and said, "But tonight is not a good day! The moon is so big, I am worried!"

I patted Chen Ye on the shoulder and said, "It's okay, everything will be better. Senior Yuyinzi will not have an accident. You have to calm down and figure out the doorway of the lost bamboo forest as soon as possible. Let's get out of here as soon as possible!"

There are many organs in the lost forest. If Chen Ye loses his composure, it will be terrible. We may be trapped inside.

Chen Ye slapped his head vigorously, took a deep breath, and said, "Okay. The black centipede is encircling over there, one-third of it is blocked by the snow, and the rest may be controlled by someone, and then he surrounds it. This place Highland, you can only stay for more than ten minutes, you must leave immediately!"

Chen Ye stood on the high ground, shining around with a torch. The bamboo forest is full of mist, and the moonlight shines down, making it more and more mysterious. Huaxue and I stood beside Chen Ye.

After a while, Chen Ye pointed to a direction and said, "Let's go there. I think the fog over there should be a little weaker. It should be a safe place!"

Mo Shi said: "In order to avoid unforeseen situations again during the advancement. We try to keep a distance of one meter and don't go too far."

Everyone nodded, Chen Ye opened the road ahead and passed through a forest. The bamboo was piled up with strange stones, many of which were piled up, and it was hard to see what the purpose was.

"Skull!" Hearing Huaxue's cry, everyone looked over. I saw a skull faintly appearing in the mist.

When we walk in and take a look, there is a skull pattern painted on a large rock. When we walk in, it should be painted with some kind of special paint. Looking over through the fog, the skull pattern is particularly scary.

Chen Ye said, "It is true that someone has seen this skeleton pattern, so they feel lost in the murderous skeleton in the bamboo forest! And those who died are because of the organ formation of the bamboo forest?"

Chen Ye uttered a highly probable idea. He strayed into the bamboo forest and saw the skull pattern. It was very likely that he thought that all kinds of weird thoughts were related to the skull, so he would have associations and thoughts. It's a skeleton killing.

I thought for a while, and said, "It makes sense, the murderous skull may be caused by the association of the skull! If this is the case, then this trip, we'll be a waste of time."

I slapped the rock hard. Although the rock was big, the bottom was unstable. I slapped it. Since it fell inside, the whole rock rolled down with a bang, and it fell down.

Only a crisp sound was heard, as if something had cracked. We hurriedly moved behind the stone and found two white human skulls, which had been crushed by the boulder.

In addition to these two smashed human skulls, there are seven other skulls.

A total of nine human skulls!

"This... This is a human skull!" Huaxue said hesitantly. The boulder loosened and crushed the human skull. This scene suddenly appeared, and everyone was surprised.

"It's a human skull!" I looked down. There were white human skulls, and there were some blackened inside. "These human skulls have been around for a long time. Where did they come from... and who are they piled up here."

From entering the lost bamboo forest to finding the nine human skulls, everything seemed to be in the mist, and I couldn't figure it out at all.

I asked this question and no one could answer me.

Huaxue said: "It seems that this murderous skeleton is chilling... It is not a guess caused by everyone, otherwise, how to explain so many skulls... There must be some monsters who collected the skulls and stored them here."

Everything fell into the mist again.

Soon, we were in a nearby place and found a big stone again. On the stone were skulls painted with special paint. Underneath the skulls, there were piles of white human skulls, some of which were black, which seemed to have experienced a lot. Years, not the ones who died in recent years.

At the end of the count, there are a total of seven such piles of white bones, together they are seven or ninety-three human skulls, judging from the corroded appearance of human skulls.

Only seven or eight human skulls are relatively new. They may be people who have died in the last ten years. The other human skulls are very old, as if they were dug out after many years of being buried in the ground for a long time.

I just don't know, why are they stacked like this, and what is the meaning of stacking

I asked, "Chen Ye, have you figured it out clearly? The seven piles of human skulls total sixty-three, except for the time when we encountered the corpse flower in the ice cave, and saw the skull of a cave, this time is the second one. There are too many. Is there anything weird and strange about these skulls piled up?"

Chen Ye said, "Xiao Kang! I don't see what these skulls do. These skulls have been buried in the ground for many years, not the brains of people who were brutally murdered. Therefore, I can't figure it out. The bones are here. The reason for this!"

Huaxue also said: "Yes! None of the human skulls here have been recreated. What is the meaning of putting them here... I really can't figure it out! It's not like a sacrifice. I haven't seen it. Such an evil sacrifice!"

Mo Shi said: "That's right! I have seen sacrifices to kill the living. There is no resentment around these skulls, indicating that most of them died naturally. Collecting skulls here is really not a kind of sorcery sacrifice."

I sighed and said, "If you can't figure it out, then don't think about it! This monster may like to collect human skulls! But he didn't kill people to get them, and I can't say that he's broken home."

After a person dies, the corpse is like dirt.

Some people like to collect skulls. It's not illegal, it's just inconsistent with morals.

These skulls appeared here, just like a headless public case, which was unclear for a while, and could only be put aside temporarily.

But it's strange to say that after we stood among the pair of chaotic skulls, the nearby mist did not come in, and even the black centipede of the ancient family did not track it.

As if shocked by the skulls of these people, for a while, he didn't dare to come close.

I said: "Have you noticed that these seven stones are piled together, which happens to be a big circle. If we stand inside the circle, things outside will not dare to come in, and those black centipedes that are tracking will not dare to approach."

Huaxue sensed the centipede for a while, and said, "Yes... They are indeed stubbornly patrolling and no longer tracked it. Could it be that someone has set a safe area in this lost bamboo forest and told the bamboo forest with their skulls and human skulls? Things, don’t approach it easily!"

At the moment, I can only explain it this way, and other than that, I can't find a suitable explanation. Chen Ye fell into deep thought, and couldn't find a new view for a while.

"Since it is temporarily safe... Then we will stay here... see if we can wait for Lei Zhenzi and Yuyinzi seniors!" Chen Ye said.

Yuyinzi said: "There are some branches around here. Let's pick some and burn a fire. I hope Lei Zhenzi and Yuyinzi can see the fire and come to meet us!"

Instead of drilling around in the lost bamboo forest, it is better to rest for a while in such a temporarily safe place. I collected some fallen branches and set the fire up.

The fire radiated out and was soon blocked by the fog. Under the heavy fog, the light will not spread too far. I only hope that Lei Zhenzi and Yuyinzi can detect them.

Mo Shi asked me, Chen Ye, and Hua Xue to sit down and rest for a while. He and Mo Wang were responsible for monitoring the surrounding areas and reminding us in time if there was a turmoil.

We sat by the fire, surrounded by human skulls, which was still a bit horrible. Fortunately, we often deal with poisonous insects, but it doesn't feel particularly scary.

The wind in the bamboo forest blew in waves, stopped and stopped sometimes, and the bamboo branches shook violently. So for a while, the heart could not calm down at all.

"Xiao Kang... Do you think there are any murderous skeletons here?" Huaxue asked in a low voice, "It always feels weird that the skulls are placed here."

I comforted me: "Don’t speculate randomly! Even if there are murderous skeletons, there is nothing to be afraid of. Master Black Skull is very good. I think this person collects skulls, dug out from the grave. I don’t want to kill people for pleasure. The skeleton man, don’t worry about him hurting us."

Although I said so in my heart, I still feel a little bit worried. Chen Ye sat down. After not sitting for two minutes, he became anxious and said, "I... I'm going to find Senior Yuyinzi. I'm worried that something happened to her, I can't worry about it!"

"Ohhhhh! I just missed five skulls!" A strange voice came from the bamboo forest, and I, Chen Ye, and Huaxue suddenly excited.
